Using if substr to identify ICD-10 codes with alpha code

PunkinSAS08 — Thu, 22 Jun 2023 22:41:22 GMT

I have a list of over 200 ICD-10 codes and was recommended to use the substr function in SAS to capture all of them ex format. S020XXA and S020XXB

I have seen examples where the substr function helps flag the first few characters but how do I use this function to also include the "A" and "B" at the end of my ICD-10 code? I have included some of the icd10 codes needed here for reference:

S02101A

S02101B

S02102A

S02102B

S02109A

S02109B

S0210XA

S0210XB

S02110A

S02110B

S02111A

S02111B

S02112A

S02112B

S02113A

S02113B

S02118A

Here's an example of using SUBSTR to also check for "A" or "B" as the last character:

if /* some conditions */ and substr(icd10, length(icd10) in "A", "B");

Since you're specifically asking about the last character, I omitted any logic that would check the earlier characters.
